Get yourself four wooden skewers and slide 5 peeled prawns on to each one. For the marinade, mix together the marinade ingredients. Drizzle half the marinade over the prawns.

For the salad, destone the mango and cut it into thin strips. Mix with the other half of the marinade, the bean sprouts, cucumber, coriander, pepper, spring onions and some sea salt.

Fry the sesame seeds in a large, dry frying pan until golden. Remove and set aside. Fry the prawns over a high heat for 2 minutes until cooked through.

Divide the salad over four plates. Place a prawn skewer
